Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues:
The power system is facing a transition from its traditional centralized operating model to a more decentralized one, through the emergence of proactive consumers on the network known as prosumers. This paradigm shift paves the way for the development and implementation of new electricity market designs to accommodate prosumers and prosumages at a local level. The emergence of new electricity market designs, such as peer-to-peer and community market designs, is encouraging the proliferation of prosumers, making consumers play a key role in the system. In addition, prosumers are looking for more sustainable and self-sufficient ways to consume electricity, for instance, through participation in renewable energy communities and cooperatives.
This Special Issue will focus on algorithms, models, methods, technologies, and applications to foster the spread of prosumers, prosumages, and energy communities in the power system from a market perspective. Potential topics include but are not limited to peer-to-peer trading mechanisms, energy communities and cooperatives, decentralized coordination of distributed energy resources, prosumer and prosumage proliferation, innovative business models, and distributed ledger (e.g., blockchain) for energy services.
